Fernando Alonso is not feeling well, which is why he missed the press conferences for the Mexican Grand Prix, and he will not drive the Aston Martin in FP1.
It is true that this last decision was planned and is not due to his discomfort; during the first test session, it was certainly test driver Felipe Drugovich who would have taken the Spaniard's place. At Aston Martin, they have not specified what made Alonso ill, let's hope it is nothing more serious. If all goes well and the two-time world champion feels better, he could already be on the track during the test session that begins Saturday evening, European time.
We're not worried about the "old man," he's a great fighter, and for nothing in the world would he miss this celebration where Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher, or even Lewis Hamilton engrave his name in this particular stone. For eternity.
